Michelin Reveals New York City’s 2013 Bib Gourmands

Michelin’s Renowned Inspectors Select 126 of their Favorite Restaurants at a Good Value

NEW YORK (September 26, 2012) – Fine food enthusiasts who love a good value rejoice: today Michelin released its largest list ever of New York City’s Bib Gourmands—establishments that serve two courses and a glass of wine or dessert for $40 or less (tax and gratuity not included). Most importantly, these are restaurants that Michelin’s esteemed inspectors would frequent themselves.

Inclusion in the MICHELIN Guide is synonymous with quality and the Bib Gourmand designation is a highly desired distinction among restaurateurs. In the 2013 edition, 126 New York City restaurants, which include a diverse range of 31 cuisine types, have been designated with the Bib Gourmand, compared to 114 last year.

The Bib Gourmands in New York City are selected by Michelin’s famously anonymous inspectors who dine across Manhattan, Brooklyn, Queens, The Bronx and Staten Island regularly. These local inspectors are trained to scrupulously apply the same time-tested methods used by Michelin inspectors for many decades throughout the world. This ensures a uniform, international standard of excellence. As a further guarantee of complete objectivity, Michelin inspectors pay all their bills in full.
